Back to Basics

As a last resort, rotate your mattress. By flipping the head of the mattress to the foot of the bed, you can slightly alter the way weight balances on the bed frame. Sometimes that's all that it takes to eliminate a squeak. After you've rotated your mattress, give it a quick test. If the squeak is gone, stretch back and relax—you're now entitled to a well-deserved night's rest.
